MOLX | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Molex Inc. introduced the iPass+ High Density (HD) system, referenced as mini-SAS HD in the SAS 2.1 standard, to meet SAS next-generation speed and density requirements.

The company said this system provides 8x as well as 4x cable-plugging options offering customers faster data, more bandwidth and more design flexibility.

"Molex's iPass+ HD technology will drive next-generation SAS solutions by providing increased bandwidth and port density," said Jay Neer, advanced technical market manager, industry standards, Molex Inc. "We designed the new system to use less beach front real estate while doubling data rates."

The iPass+ HD external input/output (I/O) connector includes eight sideband signals per 4x port. These additional signals enable active copper and optical cables, as well as active pluggable modules for extended-length applications in data centers.

"This is a significant step as server manufacturers are transitioning their enclosures to the smaller form-factor card," said Neer.
